FELIX BOHNKE WORLD TOUR WITH EDGUY

Germany — Edguy just finished recording their new CD which will be released January 2006. But before that, they will have two special releases for September 2005: Edguy’s new single “Superheroes” followed by the “Superheroes – the DVD.”

“Take a look at how we recorded the songs in the studio. The biggest part of this DVD will be the three live performances filmed in Sao Paulo,” said Felix. “Furthermore there will be a photo slide show of our recent world tour, including a featured 'Superheroes on tour'– a 20 minute documentary showing you the life on tour, funny and strange situations and last but not least a peek behind the scenes of our live recording in Sao Paulo. And of course you will learn that Mapex drums are everywhere on the planet!”

From August on, Felix and Edguy will be on tour in the USA and Canada again. "It will be a blast – this time we will bring our friends from Hammerfall.” Felix said. But before that Edguy will play a couple of festivals this summer in Germany, Spain, England, the Czech Republic and more places throughout Europe. “That is the best part of being a musician in a rock band: travelling around the world and being able to play for so many people! I cannot imagine my life without playing the drums."

"I am looking forward for this opportunity to play in the USA. Without hesitation, Mapex offered me a drumset and support for the tour – I did not even had to ask! That is one of the reasons I love playing Mapex drums and even more working with all the women and men from Mapex. I get the greatest support anyone can wish for – I hope in return I can give them great concerts and good behaviour. No matter where I am, I can be sure to find a great set of drums and all the support I need."
